Overcast and cold this late-afternoon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley. Along with some freezing temps the last few days, we’re forecast for another ‘atmospheric river‘ to wash our way Thursday/Friday, pelting us with maybe three-fourths an inch or so of rain. One must weather the weather whether you like it or not. Today a…
Rainy and cold this mid-morning Thursday here in California’s Central Valley — a crank in the levers of the real-deadly horror of the T-Rump, supposedly in the middle of winter: Via the Guardian this morning: A run of record-breaking global temperatures has continued, even with a La Niña weather pattern cooling the tropical Pacific.

Drizzling-misty rain and cold this late afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley — wet, chilled weather seemingly for the times.

Snarky-righteous Young jokes in his intro on…
Sunshine and clear-blue skies just past noon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley. Nice weather for an insane presidential election — way-beyond grasping crazy how close this race is even in the presence of someone that’s not only a deplorable, asshole piece of shit, but also freaking nuttier-than-a-fruitcake and freaking slobbering crazy — and it…
Crystal-clear skies and lots of bright sunshine just after the noon hour Sunday here in California’s Central Valley as the fall season finally starts to take hold of our weather. It’s been especially nice lately after we experienced two or three summers this year — autumn seemed to take forever to arrive and ultimately, it’s…
Clear skies and on the coolish-side temperatures — comparatively speaking — here a bit after the noon hour Friday in California’s Central Valley as for the first time in a shitload of space we’re under 90 degrees as a high today, shaping up for finally a full onslaught of the fall season. Weather shifts are…
Hot and getting hotter shortly past the noon hour Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — actual living boils down to whether we can weather the weather. The same goes for the T-Rump. Except the unhinged madness is getting worse. Blubbering incoherently yesterday in Milwaukee on climate change (MSNBC): “Global warming wasn’t working because the…
